Today, posting is unfortunately impossible, for the reason we explain below.
We simply ask for your understanding and offer a brief explanation of this fascistic digital act we are currently experiencing.
Hostages of McAfee
Every two seconds, this predator force pop-ups onto our computer screen, urging us to click here to pay so that they can supposedly “scan for viruses”.
The result is that posting any new content today is impossible, until these handcuffs are removed by the very same ruthless multinationals.
No matter how many times we remove their programs, immediately after deletion they reinstall themselves automatically.
We are therefore speaking of a form of pure coercion, a kind of digital fascism.
What we are experiencing is not simply a technical inconvenience, nor a “misconfiguration”.
It is the everyday, silent violence of digital capitalism: the transformation of the user into a hostage, the screen into a barricade, and “security” into a pretext for extortion.
When software imposes itself, reinstalls without consent, terrorizes users with pseudo-threats and demands payment in order to “leave you alone”, this is not a service.
It is digital authoritarianism wearing a corporate mask.
Fascism does not always wear a uniform.
In the 21st century, it wears a logo, speaks the language of “protection”, and operates through algorithms.
Freedom of speech, thought, and publication is threatened not only by states.
It is also threatened by multinational corporations that control the gateways of digital life.
The silence they impose —even temporarily— is a political act.
And every such act must be named.
We apologize to our friends and readers here.
And we hope to meet again soon — if our oppressors decide to release us.
